Trade policy was cited in 26% of news stories about market volatility last year. That may not seem super high... but consider it was 2.7% from 1985 to 2015.

The study, by the University of Chicago’s Steven Davis, was circulated by the National Bureau of Economic Research and dovetails with a recent Federal Reserve publication.

Uncertainty about trade policy in 2018 only may have lowered aggregate U.S. investment by more than 1%, the Fed said.
